wispswap[.]io

Analysis of wispswap.io indicates a newly registered domain that is being leveraged for a crypto‑related scam. The domain was created on March 03, 2026 and registered through NiceNIC International Group Co., Limited. It resolves to the IP address 188.114.96.3, which belongs to Cloudflare, Inc. (AS13335) and is physically located in the United States. The site is served behind Cloudflare’s network and utilizes HTTP/3, Cloudflare Browser Insights, and a Google Trust Services / WE1 SSL certificate, confirming a valid TLS handshake. Technical fingerprints show the presence of Chart.js, Ant Design, jsDelivr, Facebook Pixel, and cdnjs, suggesting a modern JavaScript stack but offering no direct evidence of malicious code. The page title returned by the server is "Buy," and the domain is classified as a Crypto Scam in the supplied intelligence.

VirusTotal reports a single positive detection out of 94 scanning engines, and the domain appears on one security blocklist. Independent scoring from Gridinsoft assigns a trust score of 0 out of 100, reinforcing the low reputation. Mail exchange records point to privateemail.com servers (mx1 and mx2), which are commonly used for disposable or low‑cost email services. The domain’s MX configuration, combined with its recent creation date, further supports the likelihood of abusive activity. The domain has been taken offline and is currently listed as blocked by PhishDestroy, indicating that mitigation actions have already been applied by at least one anti‑phishing organization.

However, the underlying infrastructure—Cloudflare hosting and a generic SSL certificate—remains reusable for future campaigns. Defenders should continue to monitor the IP 188.114.96.3 for any resurgence of malicious activity, enforce outbound filtering for connections to this address, and add wispswap.io to internal blocklists. Additional scrutiny of any traffic that includes the page title "Buy" in conjunction with cryptocurrency‑related keywords is advised.
